Out of the shoot he sits tall as the timberOne hand on the horse and one hand on the skyEight seconds later he lands in the moneyAnd winning's a feeling that money can't buyThe kids love a hero and big silver bucklesThe girls love the dream of a rodeo manHe loves the backroads and fields without fencesAnd I guess he loves me because I understand

He's a rain-rain-rainbow riderHe's hitched up his saddle he's ready to rideHe's a rain-rain-rainbow rider

A dream chasing cowboy with a rodeo girl by his sideWinter in Tuscon and spring in SavannaReno in June then off to CheyenneHe remembers the fall that he took last SeptemberHe's hopin' he draws that ol' burr againHe's a rain-rain-rainbow riderHe's hitched up his saddle he's ready to rideHe's a rain-rain-rainbow riderA dream chasing cowboy with a rode girl by his side

Lately he's talking about having a sonSomeone who'll learn from the things that he's doneA young bronc bustin' a-buckaroo

A trailer behind an old white EldoradoA red western sunset and a blue mountain rangeSome things in this life he'd like to do overBut livin' with him is something I'd never change
